Introduction to the Institute of Translational Medicine
The Institute of Translational Medicine at Qingdao University was established in April 2014. It is led by Professor Li Peifeng, an expert in the field of cardiovascular research in China. The Qingdao Municipal Government and Qingdao University have provided strong financial support in the preliminary construction of the laboratory. The research Institute has built a 1,100-square-meter experimental base, including a stem cell and cell biology research platform, a bioimaging center, a high-throughput sequencing and nucleic acid drug development platform, a molecular biology test platform, and a model animal experimental center.
The research Institute focuses on factors related to major diseases. Its main research directions are to reveal their signaling pathways and mechanisms, clarify important life activities from individual development to tissue aging and from cell regeneration to cell death, investigate relationships between molecular regulatory components and the occurrence and development of diseases, and study the key processes of life activities and the relationship between diseases. In the joint exploration of potential pathogenic factors and effective treatments, the laboratory research direction focuses on two themes and one central topic: reawakening and tissue regeneration and repair of differentiated cells, stem cell and cell cycle remodeling, and research on noncoding nucleic acid regulation and its potential mechanism, respectively. As always, the central focus of the laboratory is on noncoding nucleic acid. The above two themes include linking cell behavior and fate decisions, promoting disease diagnosis, developing new drugs, promoting the development of regenerative medicine and translational medicine, and succeeding in contributing breakthrough results to the literature in this field.
